Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In a directed graph defined by the following edges with their weights: (1, 2) = 10, (1, 3) = 5, (2, 3) = 2, (3, 1) = 6, apply the Floyd-Warshall algorithm step-by-step to find the distance matrix for all pairs of vertices.

💡 Hint: Start with the initial weights and iteratively consider each vertex as an intermediate step.

Question 2

Analyze the impact of introducing a negative cycle in a graph, such as adding an edge with a weight of -5 between two already connected vertices, in relation to calculating the shortest paths.

💡 Hint: Reflect on paths you've calculated before and consider how negative totals would affect them.
